The objective of this study is to quantitatively analyze biomechanical components (forces and torques) and muscle activity during pinching tasks in patients with thumb carpometacarpal osteoarthritis and in patients following thumb opposition reconstruction for carpal tunnel syndrome, using a pinch meter and surface electromyography, and to clarify differences in functional characteristics associated with disease and postoperative conditions.
Others
This is an exploratory study designed to quantitatively evaluate biomechanical components and muscle activity during pinching tasks and to characterize functional features associated with disease and postoperative conditions.

Diagnosis
| Device,equipment | Maneuver |
The intervention in this study consists of performing standardized pinching tasks designed for research purposes. Participants perform the pinching tasks in a seated position under predefined force conditions according to instructions. These tasks are conducted once for measurement and assessment only and are not intended as therapeutic interventions.

Male and Female
Participants who meet one of the following criteria and provide written informed consent:
Individuals diagnosed with thumb carpometacarpal osteoarthritis by a physician.
Individuals who have undergone thumb opposition reconstruction for carpal tunnel syndrome and are in a stable postoperative condition.
Healthy individuals without apparent upper limb functional impairment.
Participants meeting any of the following criteria will be excluded:
Individuals with severe pain, inflammation, or acute injury of the upper limb that interferes with performing pinching tasks.
Individuals with upper limb disorders other than thumb carpometacarpal osteoarthritis (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, severe osteoarthritis, peripheral neuropathy).
Individuals with a history of stroke, neuromuscular disease, or central nervous system disorders.
Individuals deemed inappropriate for participation by the investigators.
